Good value for money
Pros:

I was happy to stay in the hotel for 3 nights. Everything is simple but clean. Staff is friendly and helpful. 24-hour reception was important for me because of late flight . Breakfast was simple but nice. Good value for money.

Cons:

It was a little bit noisy from the road, but I had earplugs, and I had a good rest.

Ικανοποιητικό για διαμονή 4-5 ημερών.
Pros:

Το πρωινό μέτριο, με τα βασικά. Πολύ κοντά στο μετρό. Καθαριότητα καθημερινή. Ευγενικό προσωπικό.

Cons:

Το πρωινό θα μπορούσε να έχει κάτι παραπάνω (πχ αυγά).
